Tuned BMW M3 Is The Ultimate Four-Door Track Toy

The G80-generationBMW M3has been a hit since it was launched. Yes, not everyone has warmed to its divisive styling, but the sedan is brilliantly engineered. From its well-sorted chassis to the 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six producing up to 503 horsepower in Competition guise, there's a lot to like. Of course, that hasn't stopped tuners likeAC Schnitzerfrom having their way with the M3 and giving it even more power. The same goes for theM4 Coupewhich has also been on the receiving end of somespectacular upgradesover the last year or so. Now, German tuner Lightweight Performance has revealed its own radical take on the iconic M3 sedan.

Outside, this tuned M3 wears matte gold wheels measuring 20 inches in front and 21 inches at the back. Those gold wheels contrast nicely with the green paint and are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. An enormous rear wing and add-ons like a lightweight front lip, a revised power dome, and two openings in the hood add even more presence to a car that already doesn't lack any in the first place. Those openings no doubt aid cooling of the mighty turbocharged engine lurking beneath. Under the skin, there are more upgrades that make this an even better track toy than the stock M3. Lightweight's M3 gets upgraded carbon ceramic brakes, and both Eibach and Bilstein contributed to the chassis upgrades.
